My 10 year old ds wants a dvd party at home (oh joy! so cheap!) but we're unsure what dvd to show.
He wants something no one has seen before, which is probably a good idea. He likes the Herbie films that he has seen at his grandparents' house. Bless him, he is not particularly clued up on what's cool and what's not, and I want to protect him from playing a dvd that his more cool friends will sneer at.
So - is Herbie okay? Still good after all these years? Any other films that would appeal to 10 year old boys but that have not been seen a million times before...???
Suggestions very welcome!!

Is the (original) Italian Job an appropriate film? Bit cooler maybe but still in similar vein. You will possibly never please the 'cooler' boys, but it needs to be mild enough for the more sensitive ones too.

We had "Stardust". No idea how cool, but all the 10 year olds seemed to like it.
The Princess Bride?? Sounds girly but full of fun sword fights etc, my boys love it!! Or Back to the future? Weekend at Bernie's??
My ds saw Johnnie English at a 10th party recently and liked it.
How about the Agent Cody Banks films?
Agree you may never please all the cooler boys or those that claim to watch 18 rated films.
